March Matron

Have you ever been to a party, telling a funny story and you suddenly realize that the story you are telling is not nearly as entertaining as you had initially thought? I can only conclude that my ability to be succinct is defective. In my previous job, we had to text in a little summary for the day. One day I get a text back from my fellow social worker, “What the hell is wrong with you?” I’m thinking, crap, what did I do wrong? So I text back, “Why?” “You made sense and you sounded perky!” “You have the right to remain silent. What you lack is the capacity.”
